2. Select the Use this schedule for rules checkbox on this screen.
3. Select the days and times on this screen, as required.
4. Click Apply.

Note: If the schedule is disabled on this screen, this affects ALL Rules which are using a schedule.

• Every Day - all days will automatically be selected
• Sunday, Monday ..   If "Every Day" is NOT selected, you can choose the required days individually.
